openVMTools_compiled has been updated to support unRAID 6.8.0-rc4. Please use Community Applications to install or upgrade.

FYI - I am having quite a bit of difficulty getting open-vm-tools to compile on the new kernel in 6.8.0-rc1. Hopefully I will have time to work on it again next week.

Ummm.... your very ancient controller card is SATA, not SAS.

I think I’m the only one who passes through a USB controller for the license on USB, but actually boots off a vmdk. Everyone else seems to prefer PLOP.

1 - Are there performance impacts doing this, if so what? None 2 - Is there a trick to setting up shares in ESXi for the unRAID disks? You need to pass through a controller or two and access the disks directly. You do NOT want to set up disks on a datastore. 3 - Is it difficult to migrate to a bare metal unRAID instance from unRAID on ESXi? (ya know... after the panic sets in) I can boot my unRAID either baremetal or under ESXi. This is important as you will get zero support from Limetech and others running virtualized. 6 - Is there a version of Open-VMware-Tools for the latest version of unRAID 6.7.2? Yes. However, there are problems with 6.7. I recommend 6.6.7. 7 - Are the custom Open-VMware-Tools available in the Community Applications? Yes. It was recently added to CA. I try to release an updated version of Open-VM-Tools within a couple of days of a new unRAID release. Search for "openVMTools_compiled" 10 - Is viewing and managing VMs on unRAID as easy as using VM Remote Client (VMRC) and VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA)? I wouldnt run VMs on a virtualized unRAID. I use a few Dockers, but no VMs.

It’s certainly not fixed in rc1 or rc2.

Why does nobody bother to read before posting???

So, I'm guessing a new kernel fixes this problem? I see similar speeds on 6.6.x, but not on any version of 6.7.x.

But the only change from rc1 to rc2 was a docker version. It was specifically targeted at users with SQLite corruption.

it Does not

There’s already an open bug report. Revert to v6.6.7. https://forums.unraid.net/bug-reports/stable-releases/67x-very-slow-array-concurrent-performance-r605/

I suck.

I like PhotoSync. It works on Android and iOS. It has a setting that as soon as it connects to your home wifi, it will start uploading. I think its $3 or $5 for the app on each device.
